Yeah a prize like that would of been neat, maybe first place was sent soething to their Wii message board, like another picture or something. I'm guessing that the contest is Wii wheel only from a babelfish translation from the Nintendo jpn site; Aside from that though, it lists the 15th as is release date.

I only attempted the first competition a few times because I couldn't stand having to restart because the AI got a blue shell or something that would totally screw my time over. I only managed to get 1.44.588 in the end which is like 15 seconds slower then the guy in first place. There's a couple of screens shots of the next competition at the Japanese Nintendo site; It will be Wii wheel only

Like strange cookie said you can turn off the cpu in battle mode...however its still 'team battle' no matter what, rather then good old fashioned free for all. So it kind of screws up playing 3 player battle without the computer on =/

R* are actually removing any videos that have been put up on youtube and dailymotion...I can't think why they would bother though, Its not like its going to effect sales

Yeah you can turn off the CPU and have just four humans playing

If your using the gamecube, you press 'up' on the d-pad to survive a POW block.

Awesome!

wow! The most I've had is around 7400 but I had a terrible string of loses this morning and its down to 6800 now...=/

I've been downloading the ghost data of the world records for each track and using their tatics. Normally that unlocks them since all the world records smash the expert time trials.

I got to say, even though battlemode has been changed to team battle, its great having a 12 player battle match online. btw is anyone is going online right now?

I got the game today really enjoying it so far...however is there a way to change your Mii's voice?

Yeah, they said that during certain scenes you'll be able to press a button that will bring up a flashback from one of the previous games. Cool for those who haven’t played the other games recently (or at all)

Added one new screenshot to my other post. Also Official playstation magazine is out with its GTAIV review ( 10 out of 10) here are some details about the game from the review: Aweomse: 2 talk staions. I wonder if PLR will be like Vice city public radio with Maurice Chavez Pre-review from 1up: http://www.1up.com/do/previewPage?cId=3167410&p=37

Isnt that what Sonic Chronicles suposed to be...?

I got to say, stuff like that excites me more then anything about GTAIV. It really sounds like a full living city where just wondering about the place will lead to you see all kinds of random great moments. Also: New screenshots (one screen shot sent to different gta fansites again)

Some stuff from that review:

Sad news, he was great on SMart. I remember Scrachy and co. too

Just tried it, its pretty good. It comes up with 'Wii beta' on the side I noticed, so hopefully they'll add the option to put it full screen in the future.

Cool, I was just thinking about this last night and wondering what had happened to bringing the iPlayer to the Wii. I havnt tried it yet though. So does this update the internet channels flash ? Or does thi only effect the iplayer?

Me too, I've never pre ordered a game before since I've never had a problem walking into a store on a games release day and picking it up. But all the broken release dates and noise of limited stock are making me a little nervous.
